Single door is nicer bc you only have to open one door, the french doors you often have to open both bc they are too small to get to things unless it's in the door compartment. Opening or closing both doors with things in your hands gets old, and if you want to get into the meat drawer you have to open both sides fully then...
It's going to depend on where you are, but there's usually some form of transit here in Sweden in all but the most rural places. Outside of cities, there's a decent chance you'll get a car anyway because the transit is not of high enough quality, unfortunate as it may be.
That being said, where I live in Stockholm, transit takes me everywhere I want to go, including longer distances to visit my family that lives far from Stockholm in the form of decently high speed trains. My bicycle is also a great way to get around the city.
I'm very pleased with not having to own a car, it saves me a lot of money and effort, and my transport time is spent more productively - when biking, I get exercise while listening to podcasts, and on transit I can use my phone freely to do whatever I want. It's also generally a less frustrating way to get around, not having to be stuck in traffic or spend time, effort and money to park. It's also basically at no loss of time compared to driving for the majority of my trips. All this on top of being a better option from an environmental standpoint. I'm very happy!
What level of Early Access would you call this? On a scale of "dev needs more money before the proper launch" to "basically done already and early access as a form of marketing".
It's pronounced more like "sloot". To get the same sounding word as the English "slut" the closest thing would be "slatt" in Swedish, which approximately means the remainder of something - the last drops of a drink can be referred to as a "slatt"
I've started relying more on AI-powered tools like Perplexity for many of my search use-cases for this very fact - all results basically warrant a pre-filtering to be useful.
It's still unlikely to pencil out to do this given the opportunity cost of actually going through the effort of building, buying and connecting these things, to be honest.
I'm fascinated by the idea but it's important to remain realistic.
Personally, I think the best application of this concept is probably direct use of the mechanical energy, without converting the energy to electricity at all. See the bicimaquinas-concept: http://www.mayapedal.org/index.en
One of the wonderful things about bicycles is how extraordinarily efficient they are - very little energy is required in relation to how much transportation work you get out of it. This works against us in the case of power generation, though - little power going in means little power going out.
It's a tool like any other, appropriate under some circumstances and inappropriate in others.
Blindly rejecting it without considering whether it's appropriate in the context is honestly just as bad as choosing it without considering whether it's appropriate in the context, fwiw.

I follow the Duolingo Spanish Podcast, which has had some moderately interesting stories over the years, but I'd like to hear something a bit more challenging for sure.
I think pedelecs are distinct enough from mopeds to earn the name of e-bike, but throttled variants are a different matter where the line is far less clear.
I am worried that I drink too much at once. I don't drink coffee daily but typically when I do drink coffee I will have 4-6 shots of espresso. I am not asking if this is healthy per se, I'm more searching for confirmation that it isn't too uncommon lol....
One pourover in the morning, one pourover after lunch. Under exceptional circumstances, a double espresso in the afternoon. Very rarely if ever more than that.
The theory is simple: instead of buying a household item or a piece of clothing or some equipment you might use once or twice, you take it out and return it.
Growing up, there was an association in my area for common ownership of different types of machinery and other equipment for its members. You paid something like $10 a year, and for that you got to borrow all kinds of things you might need as a home owner, like a wood chopper/splitter, high pressure washer, trailers, leaf blowers, cement mixer, scaffolding etc.
Automated tests are pretty common, yes. It's not strictly speaking a matter of company size, but moreso company technical maturity.
Automated tests do not slow your business down, it is in fact the only way to not get slowed down as the amount of code you maintain increases.
The alternative cost of not having tests catch issues before they reach production is very significant - an error caught by an automated test costs nothing, while an error that makes it into production can cause immense harm to the business, if only for the time necessary to remediate the issue, which is time that could have been spent on actually making progress on delivering new features.
Not to mention the high cost of having to employ increasing amounts of manual testers just to keep the worst of issues from slipping through.
All in all, not having automated tests in place is a significant mistake from a business perspective. You might want to have a frank discussion with your CTO about it.
It's crazy good on mobile as well. Given that you have to create an unofficial port to play it on mobile it's not strictly speaking well optimized - it drains your battery like mad - but it's the best thing I've played on my phone since Slay the Spire.

If you're prioritizing cost, you should probably already be building a web application imo. There's very few cases where I would recommend cheaping out and building a native app, it's just kind of unsound.

Looks like my Lemmy-client of choice did some retrying when I had poor connection, sorry about that.
I think trying to go cheap on native apps was always kind of a fool's errand, tbh. Cordova, Xamarin, React Native and so on - all pretty sub-par solutions leading to poor experience without actually materializing the desired savings.

Even if you assume that additional labour costs are a bit higher in Germany, there's no way on earth that it could explain the difference of the Bay Area-median being over 3 times higher.
Single standard door refrigerators are better than french door.
